i've. i wasn't as a political fan knows who. has been passed in england if you are an english person when talking about the world cup you have to say it's coming home yeah let's hoping it'll get stuff by the way she's sorry but that by the way casper was absolutely amazing in this tournament. i'm sorry peter but he was even better than you. fantastic title as well as the general of the supreme committee for deliberately legacy for the twenty twenty world cup and. maybe for you it monday became a dramatic story in ulysses to. soap operas but for. my kids my kid in spite of he looks older than me. i think i think these boys from iceland since they were babies they were eating

a lot of meat on breakfast immediately just to give you an idea how big these guys are how i'm gonna. be goalkeepers recycler i do have a quick question for peter goalkeeper sorry neal i know it's a midfield dynamo as you find yourself but a quick question for peace my good it's not good i know that is unfortunately a situation that will come up you can have many teams that you support the caribbean feel only one and there's only one guy with a home that is really making the most of it. but there are times when you want to talk a little bit. what do you want to talk also about what. you know what out there. yeah it's been emotional. i think it's one of the

procrit we have clips of thunder in the background lightning strikes it sums up what has been a tremendous emotional toll in a very small amount. of correspondents all over russia in the host cities bringing you know i hope a chance to soak up some of the atmosphere to enjoy what it's like to be part of this. road show some great experiences along the way i would like to take a moment now to share a few of them with you. should have been taken over by my friend fell to the egyptian city with the phrase the next few in the series because they said. that he. would tell people to be sixty six seven.

i. feel sorry so many. will. leave. because. he. would be the guy who. has already expired yes. i have before you. live. it sounds fancy going away

runs into the way it's going to wind up buildings going up the front you. see i think it. was just saying that i was a friend i believe that's pretty russia and it hasn't been bad michael joins me was watching the match alongside me now not behind a scoring finals on but it was. what i think it was a fitting to what has been an absolutely fantastic well cup i'm a little bit sad that we didn't get three more goals because then they would have been superseded or we would have superseded brazil when you said that we don't see one goals were scored in brazil four years ago hundred sixty three before today we got six it's one hundred sixty nine which is still very very high when you said we needed nine goals i thought yeah good luck with. getting interesting with finale and let's cut to the chase here right so it was one one that was pretty even

croatia started really really well and for me the whole for forty five minutes was they were the best team no doubt about that france didn't really play well they looked very nervous and then this referee and i have to say. nestor thirteen who also refereed the opening match between russia and saudi arabia in that stadium he also refereed creation vs denmark again and i told you i was very unhappy with his performance i thought it was very one sided then today he then brings in the on a decision where i don't think it's a penalty i thought the penalty then i think the game's completely ruined and he takes so long we've watched so many times and you know it just shows you that he's in doubt he doesn't really think it's a penalty but he hasn't got a clue what am i to do here so i think it was a huge moment let's all know it is remote is why france wins this game for one because what happened after that they obviously score they go in at half time to

one up creation was one nil down got it back to one one and we have to remember they are tired they played three times at the time but this decision which for me is crazy it was not a penalty if that is a pound and we have twenty penalties in every game we can show that the moment in just a moment i smashed our three goals so everyone understands how this can unfold and i will talk about of first of all in croatia had a lot of bad luck and it's going well i was becoming a young go i think the referee give a free kick that is not a free kick first of all and then they are very very unlucky look at you as is trying to clear the ball he unfortunately doesn't get to it it's a slight defection which of us the change because of the direction of the ball and away from the court people so that one will down and it's really unlucky at that point that had four or five really sort of good opportunities in the box not clearcut chances but then in twenty eight minutes ten minutes later so we we have a pattern here in the first half by the way eighteen twenty eight and we'll get to

the next one and she's been here as i say not with a lot of this guy this guy as i said this is pretty much what we've seen from new world class stuff and he's one of them and then he scores his goal and it's one more and it's very very fair this is a. actually what this game needed created to score and get it back to a level playing field because they deserve that and then when we talk about the volley just like that croatia had a penalty appeal of their own they didn't get a little like a donated and good show so if you remember back to hurricane dean brought down the referee gives a penalty is not anywhere near the ball exactly and i mean expecting the same thing happens and look each and the referee went you know he doesn't even asked that our system doesn't even go and have a look and then we come to the crazy moment what this final did not deserve you know it's a corner kick because man again kicks it in and the an unlucky man is our friend parasite i just don't know a refugee really missed a few minutes he's not

a he's not a c. of what is supposed to do you know. the rest because apparently this is a big shock for me and you get a class player like these men an opportunity like that he will convert and you can talk to see if it has to be hands of all yes it's got to be intention it's got to be a deliberate movement of the hands of the ball happens is a guy doesn't hit the ball and he's just this and you know and you know it just hits him what could he do such a penalty i mean if that is a penalty again i repeat myself we will have penalties so many penalties in every game and that's why we needed to avoid situations that i don't believe the control did any of them are franklinton clear mistakes you know clear and obvious mistakes where the whole world can see it and today i think the whole world starts and so no it's not a penalty i had a little look sort of shoes to show social media and commentators from other and there's only one there's only one of all the pundits that i kind of follow who thought it might have been a pansy he said i probably would have given everyone else agrees with me it's not

a penalty so in a world cup final it's a big moment and i think that the referee stole that moment and i think that the creative in the service for what it did to croatia was it be played and then this was a moment where you know all that bravo all of. next hour energy everything they showed in the previous three games is just disappeared and they come back is it we've said before three times in a row in a knockout maybe they've done it at all times here and then this controversial decision not to do something out and you felt that this was just one time too many for them to go to the well and and pull it back you know see this goal here you know they are so tired they turn their back to play like march which is not you know committing himself to the shot puppets in easy sight. and you know. like it's what happened three one and from that moment on it looked really difficult and then of course my pappa get the ball halfway into crozier's. and he

shoots from forty out and of course just the way it was for france today that went in as well. but you know we can talk about being fair or unfair that this that's not the issue here let me be very clear about this france are the world champions and they do serve to be the world champions for me consistency in that they're better team these build it up they turned it on what they needed to that's big players and the form of power for. these men again today they ever looking think if you in this complication in the competition it can always get the fourth goal here to the public and this is just the way it went for france today a shot from that distance i was in and let me show you here because one of the things that come out through the week one of the pick statements is data and over and who's come out and he's done this hey look at me now i'm a really good defender on your criticize but in fact i'm one of the best defenders in the world that's what he said after the game against england that's what he went

out and said which is a very bad idea to say and let me be very clear about that today he didn't show that and his partner in the center said that the leader didn't show that either you know they were not very good today they didn't give grace of the kind of protection . and. you need to have a new kind of game and maybe logan got a little bit ahead of himself unfortunately for him it's within two months two of the biggest finals you can play and he's lost so it's not a great time for him but he didn't play well today and one of the reasons that the fan scored four goals was that you know very much a lot of unrest in that defense now i think as one of the great goalkeepers of all time i'd love to get your opinion on what hugo lloris is doing sixteen on minutes trying to dribble it past my monthly catch i have often in the idea i don't know what what what what he's doing but it's you know you're getting it's what happens

in. all not no i don't think so i just think you know this is this is the way we play this is what we've done you know i always play like that and then you don't expect the player to put the leg up and it's a goal but that's actually gave creation a little bit a life. and we had at this point ten minutes to go and you think all. twenty minutes to go maybe just maybe another if you could pull another goal back just maybe france they did really well and last twenty minutes they rode off the storm they were very solid they i mean we see the mistakes here for the fact it was played a really good game and their team is well set up to play on the break when teams are having to take the game game again but you also have a manager with a lot of experience so so he puts in dungy on and signs it gives you the same kind of protection as kinds of pernot over ninety minutes you can't do that one instance he also gets you get your height when you're defending and this is one of the thing

that creation has been really good at putting pressure on him poles in the box so that was a really clever move i thought that was a clever move. of course creation making the obvious substitutions if you like. michael you know i thought he did really well in substitution to shampoo and showed himself to be a worse the manager of of lifting the the world cup trophy which is going to do for the second time in his life one as a player that was in the last twenty years ago ninety ninety eight and now as a manager and he is joining a small group of very famous. people who've done this franz beckenbauer is one of them he won the world cup as a player in one nine hundred seventy four and then again. by also one of the manager with west germany in one thousand nine and then to got a fifty eight to sixty two as a manager then sorry as a player seventy as a manager and then in ninety four as an assistant manager so that is

a very exclusive a group of only three like that editions he's joined today so he is and they can be so unhappy with him in france for all of their lives but he has won the world cup twice for them and he'll just show them the medals and the trophies and say i don't care what you think the horns are still going i love this the world cup is over the whole just going to the very last moment let's talk about a player who was being touted as perhaps the player sort of and so people were saying libyan band play political moderates did not show up today and doesn't that they will not that kind of bogus thing the player that's on now or not i think it's a really difficult one i don't think in a popular enough all the tournament to be the best hanumant of that place player that's one of many but you never know messi wanted four years ago where you know you thinking what in this is really doing this tournament so you deborah never know who is voting today and i thought march's had a difficult game today and he wasn't as dominating and he wasn't as visual as he's

been in all the other things they played but you can excuse him he's been tied to a base you look courageous pass into this fine and take much out of that that's no way they would be in the final i'm not even. sure there are probably fights in the group so he has been he's been fantastic but today it was it wasn't it was great another name i just want to win and could win this if it's please man i think i think he has been excellent excellent right from the very very first game he's probably been as i said to france as sort of progressed and played better but but i think he is the one player in that french team that has played at the same very very high level for all of the games so he could be a contender as well but you know it's i think we'll find out very soon i'm actually just looking at a picture live picture. with the sound and like his mind. which is a few things on stage congratulating griezmann he seems to acknowledge that greece

and spain a key player then said he's been consistent when the opportunity came to him maybe he didn't seem to think part of the game when you can always look composed the penalty took almost nonchalant you always said the key to the wrong way to be nice is that kind of penalty taker he can wait for the goalkeepers can be themselves so ok that for me is that that's fantastic and do that but when i look at him as a player today i i kind of disagree a little bit with that i thought he was excellent the way to soonish france when one they also changed that tactic so every time they got up they became more and more defensive so remember how russia played against spain. france france played a lot of the game like that today and that requires one of your strikers a choice your strikers to work really hard and that he showed today he was a proper team player today he works so hard he was tackling he was chasing. that

causes he was running for everything and yes frank didn't have to fall that much he didn't have so much of the play so therefore peace man didn't show you know so much of his fantastic skills in terms of playing. he was excellent absolutely. and for his team and the into that they are but they've also said if you read through all the match they all said we don't care how we play everyone france all the croatian players all the managers all the phones we don't care all we want to do is to lift the trophy at the end of it. ok. pretty sure that croatia when they had a moment of reflection they got to be partying tonight i'm sort of a she carol get all the players out and all of the board they'll be celebrating and expected to get this far you know the fans they will have been dreaming the dream when they got so close to be some disappointment they won three consecutive games in extra time to the five penalties. can say they didn't have the test that we spoke to the croatian present head of this match she's

a passionate football fan by the way and very proud of her national team regardless of defeat. well i didn't see their team i saw the selector they're feeling fine they're feeling great what i can say is like i just played. the relax it doesn't it doesn't really matter if we win the gold or just silver well on the top of the world and i'm so proud of my nation. ok we're just untangling ourselves ice but it's been a been an interesting time appear on the rooftop we've seen kind of everything haven't we we've been busy with celebrities out of honor for that i will get into one of these wives and then blew up where there's a drug for to me it is not a nice job and i'm worried not only about the fall because it's a great view but it comes at the at the cost of this sheer drop plenty worried about being struck by lightning as well but that's the only g that we've heard throughout this tournament and speaking of energy i mean it's just go back because

for me was the pinnacle of atmosphere in this competition when russia defeated spain i mean talk about. a nerve jangling match and then what ensued on the streets all around us all of central moscow. was filled by fans they'd all been at home watching the game on t.v. and then they spilled out like ants out of an ant hill and into the streets celebrating that was it was once one of those things that you can't really understand that you have been in the middle of it but i think that's pretty much been the theme of of this world crop when it comes down to the fans they have been absolutely fantastic i know we were beating ourselves but even in this week where we only had one game in moscow one game in st petersburg and then one game today in moscow it has been amazing if you walk over old home is not back to your hotel or twelve one o'clock in the morning it's it's absolutely packed and it's not just the local people here from moscow it's it's still you still got the colombians here you

still got the mexicans you've got of course there's been so many creations in the last couple of days. french people come in today but it's it still is an amazing place at the end people simply just love this world cup it's been great and that's why i said this was a fitting for united six goals for two results it's been absolutely perfect you cannot you cannot i don't think anyone could have written this script the simple i think it's been excellent i don't i don't think there's been many poor games to spend one working class and we both went to the only much in the world cup and i had ten ideas they can actually we were supposedly i actually ended up watching two more which was actually you know it's that was just something that happened but it was supposed to be the only game that we actually was going to watch live and it was the only game in the whole so what i meant that ended goal is nil nil and you know even even saying that i took my wife had never seen a football match like before and she was still thrilled because even will know

there was some atmosphere there was mexican wave even they wing the french players when they would pass the ball forward with something today and choi actually you're being really nice because it was in fact those detainees players that were being to . leave that to wonder but i can at. when the stadium's has been there and everyone i speak to i. i meet up with former colleagues and people whose what won the world cup is well i was with some of them yesterday and they all talk about this in the stadium think posting we've seen everything as players but this has been consistent every single game has had this amazing atmosphere and when i travel around there my stories in the eleventh it is i could see that the stadiums the bill for it has been football and i hope that once the world cup over and the stadium being used by the local teams in or i hope that that lesson learned from from from what's happened in the world that that's going to be taken into those as they go in for those and those games it's been. a tournament for the fans i would

say eighty thousand plus enjoyed a great final today many many more weren't able to make it out though but they still enjoyed this world cup the scenes the we've had in paris and masai today and we've got a correspondent amongst the celebrating jubilant for of my god they look like the little they call me even one hundred five and they've won it really quite quiet now behind you charlotte what's it like that. i have pretty much they just so excited i believe in the beginning of this world cup that they were going to go all the way and it seemed today it's just sort of the right people are ecstatic they've been out on the street aleksey binge drinking and dancing and singing and they are singing over them and their team is done what they thought they were going to do all along which you do and they stash i was talking to a bunch of the game and they were saying to me it's going to be one nail it's going to be maybe to know what's going to be in that school i just every time we saw

a lot of fronts down everything was elected everybody's reaming in the yes as if they'd already won the world cup and they have done not now we know president not from was in the stadium much in the match. should we even be celebrating tonight a look it's already a festive reagan was cutting into the text of the she was pulling. the until they see the it was the same thing the run there was a new and now. you say you have it generation they say and they say i may have had one or two well can't you just a few years ago i think i don't think it was the f.b.o. no the us. was. thinking if you thought it was just going to work out which has been choices being handed out and not to listen to them at all i think i know what it's on the public get young player of the tournament and

moderates very disturbed he got player of the tournament and that colin that got up keitaro beach was the president of fraser actually she was talking to him and she was crying it was part of a very beautiful moment that was and it's so it is a he has been excellent and you know if if if you have a you know five minutes born read his story and it really is a tragic story he was a kid in the in the night and early ninety's when yugoslavia program and his childhood has not been you know at the ends of rosa that's all it's been very very tragic but football got him through the whole thing and then he ends up being the best player in the world cup it's just fantastic so i love it and some of it is from the croatian president that has to congratulate inaugurate sean he's tried he has been for most people the best player in this competition and we can assume the pools from from from down there which is about right because people have been happy with what they've witnessed here and russian the rain is about to hit if he didn't

affect the game maybe that's it that's a good thing the fans didn't matter well the weather did they were going to enjoy this they come from all over the globe to see the teams play here and we followed a few of their exciting to us. how much. how much how low. can you come up much. much. less than me a very. spicy. one

also a little soft the same care you want to focus on the face of the most yeah but i'm keeping them open for the middle going woman goes but i wouldn't bet on the funky clue oh. ok you know we are going to be sure. to go. listen. to snooki. not such issues not that you should just stop let's get started but that you will i do you have kids i'm all about clay. feet were the western media build this on the t.v. about russia it's all false they tried their best to make us you know feel at home in russia. cleese and not think the president doesn't want to be with the t.v. . even though this is the big.

yeah i said it's all about the fans without them and we just have some empty stadiums and some guys kicking a ball around those who couldn't get into the matches and couldn't get a. take it head into the funds and let's go to they must go down first there are several thousand that's a day for the final and among them our correspondent a guest on. you tell you what weather has been the biggest mood killer here in the fans you know fortunately i mean people are defined i'd argue find i mean you can probably see a lot of umbrellas behind me that's because there's a big nazi cloud right above us and the rain is quite uncomfortable i should tell you but what is most fascinating people are not going away they're not going anywhere from here i mean just when the game are up till he turned from a celebration of football and a bully and sporting achievement it turned into something of

a open and festival and open and music festival the d.j. started playing all the like the best that he had everything that he believes the best tunes and people were jumping and dancing and it's not just the french bonds i mean there are you won't find too many french fans over a half because of course most of them are absolutely can stadium a few hundred meters away from here congratulating and celebrating the victory over their team that as they do is now holding that cup for the first time in the past twenty years and now he heads a mixture it's a very international crowd they're here for the game will update all of them of course enjoy the sheer the sheer number of good will that do eat this spectacle i mean the very spectacle of the game this game has been i mean we've seen argentinean's brazilians pro-creation some great kid to even a rainy and say yeah and well now it was it's down poor and it's raining cats and

dogs so we'll see if the people decide to stay here will move somewhere away and just under the tent probably. thank you your son. getting down to the facts and me but it does adult now we got the deluge of rain and we're just watching some of the live pictures from the list nikki so president putin president michel the president a question all absolutely so eventually the umbrellas came out i don't think that people that i know the french team definitely not by that but it is really it's chucking it down t.v. pictures are really it's typical to see people here. but they are so. johnny in francine of the fee for president he's in a suit and he is honestly he's like it's a bathing suit a suit but it's a little bit i think it's a little bit of a shame because we have this we've had this incredible world with the with it where the weather's been fantastic you don't want the pictures to remind you of who you

want don't really want them with the picture like it's been raining or you know in the way it is i think of at least it held off till after the fall it held the i don't like cliche the bit of cooling rain because it's been very humid very sticky . brainwaves good players would have preferred to be to be in the rain when the game was on and now when all the pictures have been taken in the sunshine or in the not rain if you like so on the dry but now. there are great pictures in their own right i'm absolutely sure people are going to have a little bit of a smile on their face when they look back at them in the years to come yes they are absolutely so one last place shake just for this one is not going to dampen the spirits or the celebrations all the big in both of those countries i wonder what the celebrations have been like in some of russia so the host city it's been a great atmosphere lots of russians enjoying this world cup and just picking a new team to support for the end after russia departed let's go to sochi.
